The US today said it has pulled out of Global Compact on Migration, arguing that the Obama-era negotiated UN deal contains numerous provisions that are “inconsistent” with its immigration and refugee policies and the Trump Administration’s immigration principles.

“President Trump determined that the US would end its participation in the Compact process that aims to reach international consensus at the UN in 2018,” the US Mission to the United Nations said in a statement.

Earlier, the mission informed the UN Secretary-General about the US decision to end its participation in the Global Compact on Migration.

US participation in the Compact process began in 2016, following the Obama Administration’s decision to join the UN’s New York Declaration on migration.

“The New York Declaration contains numerous provisions that are inconsistent with US immigration and refugee policies and the Trump Administration’s immigration principles,” it said.

US Ambassador to the UN Nikki Haley said America is proud of its immigrant heritage and its long-standing moral leadership in providing support to migrant and refugee populations across the globe.

No country has done more than the United States, and its generosity will continue, she said.

“But our decisions on immigration policies must always be made by Americans and Americans alone. We will decide how best to control our borders and who will be allowed to enter our country. The global approach in the New York Declaration is simply not compatible with US sovereignty,” she said.

OhBum is probably emboldened by some poll that said he would have beat Trump if he had been allowed to run. The battle orders are to fight the administration at every turn. (At this point if Trump wanted to raise the speed limit then there would be a lawsuit to make them burn energy because every case will have to go to the Supreme Court.) Trump should concentrate on replacing activist judges then members of Congress that don’t support him. Congress should prepare for a government shutdown by passing a bare-bones budget that keeps open national parks and necessary government agencies but nothing else then play chicken. Oh wait did I say that out loud silly me what was I thinking

The U.N. is Anti American and has no power on our land. It always attacks Israel but looks the other way when it comes to Palestinians and Hamas.
The U.N. was a good idea in theory but is highly corruptable and it’s power should be limited as countries with bad Humanitarian and a lack of women’s rights…
Some of the countries even control the Religion of their citizens….

It’s time for us to flex its strength and fix these issues by using the power of the purse. Countries that don’t fall in line just can’t do business with the United States

Yes I agree totally with Healey and Trump on immigration, we have been very good to immigrants and they treat Americans terrible,we feed them,give them our jobs,free medical,homes,and they want to kill us,its time for AMERICANS FIRST,THANK YOU MR PRESIDENT
